  • Sonar systems[…]generate slow-rolling sound waves topping out at around 235 decibels[…]. These sound waves can travel for hundreds of miles under water, and can retain an intensity of 140 decibels as far as 300 miles from their source.

    140 dB is a gunshot at the source. About 190 in air pressure will cause an explosive shockwave that can kill a person. 235 dB in dense water pressure is…somewhat more violent, as we understand how the decibal curve works and molecular pressure at depth.

    That’s odd. I always see it the other way around and men don’t speak up for themselves because the loud woman then tries to play this card, so everyone just has to take the abuse.

    You can try say, “Bec, you need to let people finish, especially if they’re answering you.”

    But a complaint will go to HR.
